Keep the office and the job site on the same line.
Contractors spend the day on the move, between the shop, the office and job sites. We help you compare phone and internet options so customers and crews can reach the right person.
The problem
Why this gets complicated
A contracting business runs on calls. Customers call for estimates, crews call the office, and suppliers call with delivery updates. When those calls land on one desk phone or a personal cell, things get missed.
Job sites add another layer. A temporary site office or trailer may need its own connection for a short time. Each piece often ends up on a different plan and a different bill.
Before you sign
What to look for
A few things worth checking before you sign anything.
Phones that follow the crew
A business number that can ring on cell phones, so customers reach you even when nobody is in the office.
Know your contract dates
Check when your current phone and internet contracts end so nothing renews without a decision.
Options for temporary sites
Ask what it takes to connect a trailer or site office, and how long that service needs to last.
A steady office connection
Estimating, scheduling and file sharing still depend on a solid connection at the shop or office.
